Picture a landscape where the simple act of survival becomes an
extraordinary feat. Imagine a close-knit community, their lives
interwoven with the rhythms of the earth, facing the encroaching
shadow of a devastating conflict.
Our next story unfolds in a time of immense upheaval, where
loyalty is tested and the bonds of family are stretched to theirlimits. Think of a hidden refuge, a place where the echoes of
a more peaceful past linger, even as the storm clouds gather.
We are about to delve into the profound impact of war on ordinary
lives, learning of courage, sacrifice, and the desperate fight to hold
onto hope in the face of overwhelming adversity. We will be
transported to a valley, perhaps the last of its kind, and discover
the fierce determination of those who call it home.
Gentlemen, too much time has already been squandered.
Today I will take no more of it, though I will endeavor to take
us back in it. Prepare to immerse yourselves in a "compelling
narrative that stays with you long after you turn the last page."
Mark Sullivan's The Last Green Valley.

While I suspect this book will be a much easier read than The Satanic Verses i anticipate it will trigger a more difficult discussion.
